milwaukee last Friday night.
Mr.. and Mrs. ]. A. Johnson 70.
turned from Red Wing yesterday.
g. n. Perkins, Of Willmsr, was In
town on Monday and made the
TRIBUNE pleasant call.
J. E. Favrow and family have
moved into w. b. Hancock's fine
residence in the park near the court
house.
Rev. George West was in town and
preached in the Methodist church
last Sunday evening. He was on his
way from Hamline to Ada where he
will be located for the remainder of
she Conference year.
| A young man of Clarissa was re-
Gently roboed of $25 by card sharper.
Young men had better leave their
money with their M, theirs or sisters
if they cannot let cards alone-Sauk
Centre Tribune.
This has been an unusual winter
for snow and wind and consequently
dangerous to travellers on the prairie.
Farmers ought 10 keep lights near
the windows on such nights to aid
any poor wanderer that might be
| adrift.-BensOn Times.
Milo Camp is conducting quite an
extensive wood business at Wheeler
Station and keeps continually on
hand large supply of excellent
wood. He sells dry hard maple at
that point $3.50 per cord and
other kinds of wood i'll proportion.
The ladies' Missionary meeting at
the residence of the Misses Spooner
was largely attended and was an ex-
ceedingly enjoyable one. A consid-
cradle number of the gentlemen ac-
cepted the invitation to tea. The
proceeds, we understood, are to be
applied upon the debt of the new
church in the town of Pepperton.
| For first class job work at low prices
come to this office. Don't patronize
| offices where, with worn out type,
rickety press and poor help, your
stationery will be made 10 look worse
than the footprints ola rubber stamp,
when for the same amount of money,
| you can get from the TRIBUNE office,
first class stationery printed in first
class style.
We have always thought the able
writer's upon the paper-up.the street
to be opposed to secret societies, but
we learn that all ofthem have reached
the 4oth degree in the ancient order
of Ananias and are promising candi-
dates for the 18th. We once applied
for membership in the order, but be-
cause OF our well-known George
Washington characteristics were re-
fused admission.
There In q new firm in town which
the TRIBUNE should have noticed
| some time ago. It is A. A. Stone q
Co., composed Of A. A. Stone, w. II.
Miles and w. J. Dumble. Each
| member of the firm is too well and
| favorably known to need introduction
by the TRIBUNE. They deal in hard
ware, furniture, agricultural imple-
ments etc. The stock is large and
complete and all patrons are sure to
lie well served. The success of the
new firm is assured.
Whenever going East or South from
st. Paul and Minneapolis remember
the Royal Route" composed Of the
Chicago, st. Paul, Minneapolis and
| Omaha and Northwestern railways.
The road is always in excellent con-
dition, the most finely furnished
coaches, dining cars and sleepers are
used, employees are uniformly
gentIemanly and courteous and pas
sengers receive every possible atten-
ion. Travelling is a real pleasure
over the Royal Route.
Advertising is valuable in proper
ton to the circulation and standing
of the paper in which the advertise
ment appears. The TRIBUNE has q
very general circulation and is valu-
able as an advertising medium to all
having business In this county, ut
least. It's advertising space costs but
$4,000 per column per year. Wonder
if other papers in the county quote o
price as much less as their circulation
is less than the TTIBUNE's! II not q
few people are being over-charged.
The TRIBUNE states positively that
the Sun made proposition for pool
upon the county printing, before the
recent meeting of the county COM
missioners, and did all in its power to
force the taxpayers to pay full legal
rates for their printing this year. This
the sub now denies, and it become q
question of veracity. 1t is very ap-
parent that there il lie to be lodged
in one Office or the other, but We fully
realize the fact that an intelligent
public will have no difficulty IN plac.
: ing it where it belongs.
st. Valentines day - approaching
and the statloners' windows are ad'
: orned with the usual motley array o.
highly sensational and intensely
funny comic valentines. The comic
valentine is fearfully and wonder
fully made and there Is nothing like
y unto it. The lover will embrace the
t occasion to send highly colorsd and
delicately scented effusion to his lady
